A conversation with my late Ojibway Great-Grandma

Poems 1 Minute

Inspired by the book Embers One Ojibway’s Meditations written by Richard Wagamese

Me: What if I fail?

Great-Grandma: The Creator is within you. You will not fail.

Me: How do I not let fear hold me back?

Great-Grandma: You have opportunities to trust in your destiny of gold. Believe with all your heart.

Me: But how?

Great-Grandma: You are not alone.

I walked with peace towards my goals after that.

A year before publishing my book I was in the hospital. I painted the word arise with similar colours to the cover design of my book. The artist who designed my cover didn’t see this painting of mine yet there is such an amazing similarity. It gives me goosebumps to see this! God doesn’t waste any of our suffering. It looks like I was meant to name my book after the word that jumped out at me during my hospital stay.
